Topshop Leigh skinny jeans are great, soft, comfy, come in loads of colours as well as petite and tall... About £40 but once you try them they'll be worth the extra IMO!

Primarks £11 ones. I wear mine nearly every day. Perfect!

I like Topshop ones but H&M also v good and my black ones have been worn for ages and haven't faded.

The amelie in River Island is excellent. Bit more jean like than the topshop leighs which are not terribly forgiving in my opinion although very comfortable.

Dorothy Perkins have loads in all sorts of different colours and fittings!

Top shop Leigh are skintight. Like leggings

StrawberrytallCAKE · 15/12/2012 07:24

I have some 7 for all mankind, d&g, sass and bide, topshop which are all rubbish compared to the dotty p ones I got for £10 in the sale!

These ones for sure. Last ages and no baggy knees, which always seems to be a big problem for me.

I second the Primark £11 ones - nice colours and they wash well. I have several.

Another vote for Topshop Leigh

My best budget ones are form New Look (cant seem to find them online to link too but around £20 blue ones with black crystal cross on back pocket). Nicely stretchy but keep their shape.
Also have some good ones from Limited Collection at M&S. Find that if you go for more of a soft jegging style rather than stiffer denim they stay true to shape.
Worst are from Next by far - unwearable after a few washes (and I try and wash on a cool wash, dry away from heat low iron).

My h and m ones are shocking not even 5 washes. But my dot p ones (can't remember the name but 2 for £25) fab fab fab

Boden Johnnie B ones are amazing, especially in the sale, they never go baggy.

Gap

Fantastic, thanks all. I'll get shopping. I have the tesco ones on today and they feel at least a size bigger this evening than they did this morningConfused

You need ones with a high percentage of elastane, they will have a stretchy feel to the fabric. Anything around the 0-2% mark will go baggy.

I got some Dorothy Perkins ones last week, very comfy and keep shale. Think I'm going to go back for another colour

letseatgrandma · 15/12/2012 21:36

Can anyone link to the DP ones-which ones are good?!
